Interesting you say that, because I keep hearing the ZF8s are nearly as fast as DCTs now, maybe they are talking about the 3rd gen ZF8s? (Supra, ZR)
There is a few articles online about this?
Even BMW ditched the DCT for a ZF8 in their new M Competition cars.

Anyways, I still haven't ruled out a DCT swap either.

As for the refinement, I was under the impression that standalone controllers can make the transmission perform better?
